Ex-GOv. ORDwAY surveys his old pos
sessions again to-day, through the court
esy OF the GLOBE. A study of his pict-
ure Will give DakOtianS an idea as to
now he has Jared since he left the terri

friend who furnished the sketch accom-
panying the picture, that ORDwAY took
little part in purely political contests
while governor of Dakota, will likely be
awarded the blue ribbon-by unanimous
caoansent-as CO. the best joke Of the season.

Even the Indians acknowledge the

government. Advices from the reser-
vatlOns go to show that the feeling of
anlmosity and mistrust engendered by
Republican management has almost en-
tirely disappeared.

-hCol. Bowen, of Yankton, is politely
informed that the picture at the head

Editor PIERCE's substitute asks:

OF the people on the question of di-

be- Nobody objects to having the vote
taken. 1t is bit of harmless diversion.

The Substitute discovered new DO
tltlcal organization during the absence
OF Editor PIERCE-the CHURCH party.
It's better to have a. sub. sometimes
than regular in. the chair. Great
secrets are divufged which might other
wise never have been thought of. This
Is a startling revelation, and has caused
tremendous sensation. The sub. is to
be congratulated on his wonderful abil-
ity and versatility. We must have some
thing to stir us up in these piping times
of peace.
The Substitute could not resist the
temptation to ring in little joke to re-

says: ''There is general unanimity
of sentiment in favor of division
throughout the North.'' =

Comment" of ex-Gov. P1ERCE's depart
ment last week: ''The governor admits
acting hastily in dismiSing two OF his staff
officers at Huron" This is as barefaced
falsehoOd as ever was printed. Gov,
CHURCH has never made such state
ment, and the writer of the paragraph
quoted undoubtedly knew of this fact
when he wrote the words.

Judge PALMER has come down grace
fully, and the boys should give him an.

AS Attorney General TEMPLEToN
aptly puts it: 'There is no objection
tothe old Yankton board meeting and
resolving as much as they want to, but
can't see what they are to gain by it,
